The decisions you make today will have a profound effect on your loved ones tomorrow...

Throughout our lives, we anticipate and plan for many of life's most precious moments- our wedding, the birth of our children, our first home, family vacations, and retirement. We plan ahead so that we can meet the needs of our family and make sure that the details of life's most important events are taken care of. Yet, we leave the most significant event to our loved ones to plan during a time of sadness and distress. Doesn't it make sense to take care of one of your most important family responsibilities now before your loved ones have to?

With the help of O'Connell Family Funeral Homes, you'll never again have to worry about your final arrangements. Nor will your family. Our online prearrangement program provides you with a secure, confidential record of your funeral and cemetery wishes. Whether you choose to preplan in the privacy of your own home, or with the help of one of our experienced counselors, you will have peace of mind knowing that you have taken care of these important decisions. So, no matter where life takes you, your plan travels with you.

You may also choose to prepay for your arrangements. This provides additional peace of mind knowing that your loved ones will not be burdened by financial worries. To help you determine the right choice for you and your family, please contact our offices to help you fully explore the options to protect against inflationary prices.

Lastly, one of the most important advantages of preplanning your final arrangements in advance is having the opportunity to put into writing your wishes for how you would like to be remembered. Doing so, no one has to guess what you would have wanted. You can choose to make your funeral or memorial as personal and unique as you wish. From the location, to the music, to the food, the choice is yours. And, you can leave your family with a final loving gift: a personalized reflection of your life in which they can celebrate and remember you.
